[NTG-context] Links in TOC not working properly?!
Hi, I installed the newest upgrade of ConTeXt, but processing my files yields strange results! In an interactive document the links to the different sections are not working any more. Selecting the different sections from the table-of-contents (with \placelist command!) all yield a jump to the very first section!!! Regards, Gerard Verhaag P.S.

You have to change the font for slanted because the module use a italic
font when no slanted font is found.
\usemodule[simplefonts]
\definefontfeature[fakeslanted][default][slant=.35]
\setmainfont[TeX Gyre Pagella][slantedfont={*
Regular},slantedfeatures=fakeslanted]
\starttext
{\sl slanted font} slanted font

[NTG-context] What’s your favorite command?
Hi all, to bring some traffic to the list I have a question where I hope even non regulars send a answer. The ConTeXt package is huge and provides dozen of commands but I guess many have *one* favorite command (maybe also functionality). As I started this thread I’ll present my favorite command which is \donothing, it is a internal command and only a synonym for \empty but it’s one reason why I prefer ConTeXt’s coding style (especially with the recent changes in MkIV) over the unreadable LaTeX code.

I was surprised by the unusual “Subject” line in my mail
client. But I don't hesitate:
My favourite command is \externalfigure [placeholder]
because it produces very pretty colourful graphics (I'm
bored to use the dutch cow or the wind mill every time).
Example:
\useMPlibrary [dum]

\dorecurse{10}{

Compared to what Wolfgang, Thomas and Otared wrote my favorite command is a
quite high-level command:
\offset[x=...,y=...]{...}
I really love his command: It's amazing, it gives so much spontaneous freedom
and power in positioning elements!
Without this command the early years of ConTeXT were quite painful ...

[NTG-context] Still Problems With TextBackground bottomoffset / topoffset
Hey Hans, Aditya, and Wolfgang,
You gentlemen seem to be very knowledgeable with ConTeXt, so I will run
a question by you that has been plaguing me for months. I am using the
following to typeset a text box containing text.
\definetextbackground[GeneralDocument][
location=paragraph,
color=color_text,
background=color,
backgroundcolor=colour_page,
framecolor=colour_text,
topoffset=1.0cm,
bottomoffset=1.0cm,
leftoffset=1.0cm,
rightoffset=1.0cm,
before={
\blank[2*big]
},
after={
\blank[2*big]
},
style=small,
corner=round,
frame=on]
This works fine, but I still have a problem if the text box spans
multiple pages because bottomoffset / topoffset seem to be ignored at
the points where the page breaks. The text just goes right to the edge
of the page top or bottom without any whitespace.
Any ideas?

[NTG-context] Problem Citing a Definition
Hey list,
I am trying to cite a definition typeset with a
\startdefinition[definition:foo] and \stopdefinition pair. I am doing
this by using a \in{definition}[definition:foo]. That works, but in
the text I just see linkable text definition.
I'd like it to be more descriptive of the physical location in the
book, e.g. foo in section 10.2. It was my impression according to the
manual that it was suppose to already do that, or am I not using \in
correctly?
